JavaFX: Get row data from TableView

caution@2014-08-08:

This example not work correctly when compile with JDK 1.8/JavaFX 8. Please read: http://goo.gl/IRCaz4

---

To get individual record in a TableView, using the code:

Record selectedRecord = (Record)tableView.getItems().get(selectdIndex);

where selectedIndex is the index in the TableView interested.

Extend from last article of "Embed Button in TableView", implement EventHandler of the embedded button, th read data of the selected row and display on another TableView within dialog.
